I really don't get the point in this group. The rivals don't have 4 wheels drive, so we'll just get other stuff that does (negating the inherent advantage over rivals? The Merc and Ford should be against an RS3, not a TT. THe TT should be against the Cayman, or maybe Z4, where the 'numbness' of the RS platform but 4wd bonus battles against lighter, more playful rwd cars. If you think the TT-RS doesn't really have a direct rival, then don't do a comparison video.

First the A45 - Ugly- Like a bodybuilder who never does a leg workout. Second. This test is all about tires. Third. My mother in her Peugeot 106 could set a better lap time than you. The TTRS is 55 KG lighter and stiffer due to bonded alloy than the A45, yet you think the A45 is a better chassis! I think its the tires.

Complete bs the ttrs is far faster on the track. Maybe if he acctually hot the gas. Everyone knows Audi-s are the easiest thing to drive ever. If your slipping out on a track with a car with awd and the bed traction control out there then you must be the worst driver in existence

so this dude felt. 2 second difference on the track? I am surprised at how much he was down playing the ttrs, just to have it come within. 2 seconds of the amg. And he said he felt that difference. ok

Question? do you think this RS will last just like any other car like a Corolla that surely can last for 500k miles? just curious. Nothing against RS. I am asking because i would like to buy one.

To be fair. you drove the TT like an old lady. It is capable of so much more. Go watch Tiff tame the beast. The Merc does look impressive though. il be checking one out soon maybe -

Seems a bit weird to compare 2 medium sized hatchbacks to a roadster (is the tt classed as a roadster) which is 20k more than one of the cars you're comparing it to.

Great solid, indepth, knowledgeable review. Evident knowledge and sensibility of automotive dynamics. But WHY DON'T YOU JUST EAT A LITTLE BIT LESS of everything!

audi tt rs weight is not the body but drive train and taking a close look you find that audi use high drive ratios and benz and ford use same ratios through
